ANTENNAS
I
Antennas:
FM:
oExtend the Telescopic Antenna completely and
adjust
its
length
and angle for optimum reception.
aTo
improve reception or receive
very
distant stalions, connect an
FM
antenna
(FM
dipole anlenna,
TV
antenna)
to the
External
Antenna Terminals,
as
shown
in
the figure.
MW:
oThe
sensitive ferrite core antenna inside
the
set
will provide
excellent MW reception
in most
areas. For optimum reception, turn
the set
in
the direction which gives the best results,
since the
ferrite
core antenna is directional.
SW:
oExtend
the Telescopic Antenna completely, keeping
it
vertical.
oTo
improve reception, connect
a length of wire,
to
serve as
an
antenna,
to the
External Antenna Terminals,
as
shown
in
the
figure.
Note:
An antenna for the SW bands can be constructed from a length
of
wire. A
long length of wire will provide better results;
however,
a
short length
of
wire is also suitable.

Note:
lf the antenna is
connected with 75O coaxial cable instead
of
300O
twin lead, the matching transformer
is
not required.

oWhen
using external antennafor FM and SW
reception, shorten the
Telescopic
Antenna.
oWhen using the
external antennas
for
SW reception,
set
the
Antenna
Selector to match the particular antenna used.
